State Route 362 (SR 362) is a 32.5-mile-long (52.3 km) state highway located in the west-central part of the U.S. state of Georgia. It is mainly a rural route, traveling through parts of Meriwether, Pike, and Spalding counties, connecting the Greenville area with Griffin, via Williamson.
The roadway had an eastern segment built by the end of 1953. This segment was effectively extended to the west the following year. In 1960, the western segment was built. Before the decade was over, it had been designated as SR 362, the Alvaton–Hollondale segment was built, and the SR 362 designated was extended along the rest of the roadway.
SR 362 begins at an intersection with US 27 Alternate/SR 41 north of Greenville, in Meriwether County, and travels to the northeast, through unincorporated and generally rural areas of the county. The highway has a concurrency with SR 74/SR 85 for about 1 mile (1.6 km) south-southwest of Haralson. SR 362 then travels to the east, crossing the Flint River into Pike County. It then curves back to the northeast, crossing into Spalding County before reaching an interchange with US 19/US 41/SR 3 (Martin Luther King Jr. Parkway) in Griffin. The route continues to the northeast, passing northwest of Municipal Park. Then, it turns right onto West Poplar Street and meets its eastern terminus, an intersection with US 19 Business/US 41 Business/SR 155 (South Hill Street) in downtown.
